In the past few days, I've been trying to find someone to boost with me to get the Platinum.

I met two guys who were doing it too and we teamed up. Everything seemed to go well, we got the rally achievement with ease and we were going to get the "Numero Uno". Suddenly, when we finished the Deathmatch in which I let them win, the left the match, deleted me from their friends list and blocked me! I was surprised, I thought we were doing really well.

In hopes of trying again, I posted in our B&M topic about losing faith in getting the Platinum. That's when my luck changed. A cool guy by the name of Classique promptly offered himself to help out. We added each other and dived in Los Santos to boost me (he already has the Plat). We did it in 3 hours +- and we had a lot of fun doing it!

So, this is the story of how I got "scammed" by two douches who used me to get ahead and how I met a really cool new friend here.

I find that I've been on both sides of spectrum: Got money, and ain't got money. When I had money, I always felt a decent amount of motivation to continue my money making efforts. When I'd spend a little here and there and put myself back into the barely middle class, it seemed my motivation to make that back was severely lessened...but, now that I'm back to the, got money stage, and the motivation to money making is back in action.

 

I feel bad for those who have spent a sh*t ton on some business venture only to find they've been had. Least of all that there is no "sell this bullsh*t multi-million dollar business back, because it's just costing me money to keep it and keep it going, wtf R*?" button. But, then again, there's plenty of info out there, for everyone, to be clued in on what's what, and it's something I did farely extensively before upgrading and continue on as a new gen business mogul. Which leaves even less reason to feel bad...I just, don't, know...

 

I need tomorrow to bring something good from the drip feed and for the current LSC sales to be negated, so I can get back to my full price, car sales. Been a week now without a sell... And give us a decent double money event, already.

Went into a room intending to mind my own business as usual and play a little Import Export. 2 minutes in on my way to steal a car and i get 2 votes to kick me from the room. Quick look at the map shows just 2 other people in the room. I know as soon as i deliver the car i'll get kicked from the room. So instead i drive it all the way to my warehouse and leave it parked outside. Then i go on the attack for vote kicking me for no reason. Here's a little video montage of what happened. You will see after about 15 to 20 mins they are like "WHY THE f*ck DIDN'T THIS GUY GET KICKED!" an try to vote kick me again. After i dealt with them one of them left and the other went into hiding. I then went back and delivered my car with £0 damage. And not a single kill on me. Wankers!

A guy was hunting me for no reason with his oppressor. So I hoped on to my own, made a hard turn and jumped over the Alamo Sea (right in the middle of it)

Knowing that it will be hard for him to jump after me (cause he boosted just after jumping... amature) I just simply waited for him with my sniper on the other side.

One shot with explosive round - he dies, bike falls in to the water, he pays 20k for insurance.

After that he gets blinded with rage. He tried to destroy my armored boxville that I parked inside Fort Zancudo (fortified mission).

I had to blow up his oppressor bike 25 times in a row cause he just kept spawning them over and over again with his MC abilities...

So many years and people still amaze me somehow.

I normally attempt to avoid free roam battles due to you know, the usual douchey warlords and their trash talk etc etc but I ended up in one today, with another GTAF crew member that had me giggling due to its laid back nature with nice banter between parties. It began with me dive bombing the player (who also had 'Rabbit' in their name and was disappointed that his own kind turned on him lol) who had blown up an unfortunate players vehicle cargo in their heli (I crashed as well, clipping the building...I'll never make it as a greifer), right as they were about to pull into the La Mesa warehouse. Poor sap raged and then left. It then involved a car chase in a cop car near Grove St, stickies flying left and right, me inadvertently killing my friend in the process on the freeway then finished with a game of cat and mouse in and around the car park across the road from the Alta St apartments, with RPG's (I disapproved of his use of the Cheval Surge...I just hate that car lol), snipers, molotovs, proxies before the player thanked us and bade farewell.

Spawn into my bunker, check the map and see there are just 3 people in the room so decide to sell my supplies. Turns out all 3 of them are first class c*nts! Who knew! They attempt to destroy my supplies in buzzards and oppressors but get more than they bargained for. Not a single kill on me. Then they kick ME! lol A little video montage of what happened.

I decided to follow an NPC for as long as I could, I have not found the right one but today I made a small test

I found this dude walking in the pouring rain, only with His swim shorts on

I walked descretely at distance not to scare him

He surely was on drugs because he was walking indeferent to fast cars, crossing the highway on diagonals several times..

When cars stoped in front and protested He just answered something like - Take it easy, whats the big deal - well, something like that

I always wondered...

Do NPCs spawn and puff away after half an hour or so ???

Or do they stay forever, going at their business ???

Ok, back to that dude...

It was always raining and He was notoriously bothered with it, with gestures of protest and sometimes taking out a hanckershif to clean the face or something

Guess His main role was being at the Beach or an Hotel pool, but clearly was here out of place and the rain dud not help, yes, surelly high on drugs, lol

We sometimes see NPCs bumping cars without our intervention and sometimes they punch eachother, so is this game AI so diverse I could be watching a dude that had any crazy wild experience few minutes before and just went out of place windering the dangerous highway ???

He crossed off-road and went down to the lookout where the sailboat/sub spawn but did not made the stairs down, and than was coming back up to the road, but this time using the dirt trail

I had to log-off, hope He has a hangover and gets recivered, lololllll

Two of my crew mates and myself decided to run a bunker mission the other night. We have one guy in the 18 wheeler we are suppose to deliver, one is in his custom sports car running blocker for the truck and I'm hovering above in my Buzzard running air support. There was probably 12 people in our lobby, 4 other organizations were doing their thing and mostly everyone was leaving each other alone.

So we're all moving down the highway, leaving Sandy Shores, and for most of the trip we had no one bother us. One play came towards us but just moved right on and left us alone. Then we noticed all the xx killed xx notifications. One guy was going around killing everyone for fun, typical troll. As our little convoy is moving onto the main highway cutting through downtown we noticed a white dot moving at high speed right for us. Before any of us could react, the troll plowed his car right into the 18 wheeler head on. As he backed up my homing rockets locked on and I fired a volley, taking him out without damaging the truck.

My crew mate get the truck in gear and we're moving again. I keep a close eye on my mini map and sure enough, that little white dot starts moving towards us from behind. I rotate my chopper around to face him and lower altitude (I'm near some over passes and wanted to make sure I had a clear shot). The truck keeps moving and I wait. Before this guy could get out from under the over passes, I lock on and fire, taking him out yet again. I meet up with my crew and we deliver the truck to the airport. As we're milling around Mr. Troll shows up and tries to take us all out. He got one of my crew mates but then the third takes out the troll.

 

This person respawned about 5 times as he tried to take each of us out. I took him out with my Buzzard about 2 more times, one crew mate got another buzzard from the airport and we surrounded him, he got a kill and our other mate got 2 on him. Suddenly, players in the other organizations started to converge on the area (we assumed to deal some punishment to the troll). That was when we decided to start up a race job before we ended up in a mass shoot out. So we left the session and finished the night off with a race.

I know this will sound weird but all these attacks on craters and sellers happen because of Shark Cards

 

Rockstar does not want us to get rich on business DLCs and that is why the lobby is warned someone is carrying goods and all are encouraged to come upon us

 

I believe 90% of these attacks would not happen if grinders (CEOs MCs etc) were just another dot moving in the map

 

Rockstar is the real enemy to blame

 

If people can ammount great cash people will not feel the need to pay for shark cards, that is also why prices on vehicles and properties are so high

 

Besides, most piracy acts will not even reward people with loot, only stolen product, not sales, but they will spoil, in few stupid seconds, many many hours of our work and battles in missions

 

Can't you all see how ironic and sad this is ??? Buy a DLC and make your business but as soon as we are selling - hey lobby, here are some people to troll

 

I know a game needs challenge but that should be put on the missions not promoting grieffing, or at least let me use the good vehicles that I paid millions to have and not my MC forced sales on slow stupid vans accross a lobby filled with fast deadly vehicles that can come upon me

 

I play solo witch makes me a whole sweet target that can't even shoot back on the delivery MC forced slow ridiculous vehicles... Why the hell can't I use the Buzzard or Rogue or Nightshark on my business if I grinded and paid a fortune for them ???

 

Rockstar keeps puting us all against each other, they are the trolls, all for the sake of - Remain poor, wish for the good expensive stuff and BUY Shark Cards

I got a GR sale tonight with the Surge, but it was only 1 drop and zero NPC resistance of any sort... Almost the easiest 220k, ever.

I met some guy who was trash talking people who ewo, saying how they aren't good. We ended up getting into a 1v1 at the beach and what does he do? EWO right when I was about to kill him lol.

You won't get an argument from on this. I think I'd rather pay for a season's pass or for each DLC separately if it meant that we didn't have to go into public lobbies to run all these special missions. I just don't see the point in having spend over a million dollars for a hangar, then have to turn around and spend millions to get a plane, then thousands and thousands to upgrade said plane just to turn around and have someone in a public lobby shoot me down when I'm just minding my own business.

 

Of course, this is the same company that essentially removed the armored truck from spawning in maps just so we couldn't get free money from it. I'm honestly surprised they haven't removed the ability to rob stores.

Couple of days ago, I somehow managed to get around 75 kills in a P-996 LAZER without dying once. The reason I didn't get shafted was because I was on LG, and that also means I unfortunately have no footage

 

My K/D went up .10 though, if that kinda matters.

Also, nobody other than one dude even grabbed a jet. One dude grabbed a Lazer, and we had a pretty intense dogfight, but I came out on top because he only used missiles and not his cannons. It was a good dogfight, legit and both of us almost crashed a couple times. I sent him a "gg" message and we parted ways.

So, I was doing the railgun resupplying mission.

My bunker is the one in front of Fort Zancudo.

I steal the railgun, hop on my buzzard and I'm good to go.

I'm almost arrived, I'm over the bridge near Fort Zancudo.

Random guy shoots me with a Homing RPG.

I jump off the Buzzard at the very last time, open the parachute and land smoothly on the yellow circle.

 

Damn it felt so gggoooooood.

[Forza Harrd]

I got knocked from 2nd to 10th in Plummet II, worked my way back to the front and won the race, and went from 199 to 200 at the same time. Also later went over 300 mil. in bank.

 

Spent on property & utilities $211.6M

[Big Molio]

So I made a second character for the "Gang Life" snapmatic entry, as my main character wouldn't really fit. Things I learned...

 

1. When you start, Jesus the phone never stops ringing!

2. Being a 120 rank, everybody in session tries to take a piece out of you! My main guy is 719 rank and I generally get left alone

3. I kind of had fun armed with just a handgun and a BMX, I'm tempted to play on with him for a bit. Gives the thing a whole new perspective.

I recently did something similar for Double Pulse's GTA Online series. I made a middle aged male character that ended up looking kind of like Double's dad (lol).

 

It really was refreshing having only a handgun, running from the cops, grabbing their pump action, and driving random getaway cars until they were crumpled balls of tinfoil brought back single player vibes. It really provides perspective into what GTA Online has become.

[Forza Harrd]

I was practicing for improving my .49 kd ratio, and I figured I'd go for what i know, and called a Pegasus Savage and started treating other players like npc police. Saw a helicopter icon, went after it, and it was a Savage! I don't care, I spammed missiles from out pf cannon range and shot it down. A kills a kill.

[Kiethblacklion]

So last night I popped into a public session to run a few VIP missions. I picked up a briefcase from the Altruists near Mt. Chiliad, delivered it and was chilling out at Sandy Shores air field. I saw a rival organization running cargo from the quary to their clubhouse near Sandy Shores. I was feeling generous so I "texted" them saying I wasn't attacking then flew my Buzzard over to them and provided free air support. They succeed in delivering their cargo and I parked nearby. Checking my map I saw another rival organization flying near the wind farm. So I headed over to them and saw a bunch of buzzards attacking a large aircraft. Here is where I screwed up. I locked onto a buzzard and fired a rocket. It hit, the chopper went down and then I saw the notice where I had killed a player from the organization I was coming over to help. Now, I'm not one who will attack another player or organization unless I am attacked first and I didn't want to come off as a d**k, so I landed and texted the person I shot down. Of course, they respawned, flew over and killed me while I was "Texting" them.

 

I still sent my apology and I can't fault them for retaliating. I ended up leaving GTA Online for the night after that and headed to bed.
